Welcome to IthaMaps
IthaMaps is a global epidemiology database of heamoglobinopathies, illustrating published data on a dynamic global to regional map. Country-specific information on haemoglobinopathy-related policies, prevalence, incidence and overall disease burden is given, including relative allele frequencies of specific globin mutations in each country and/or region, dynamically linked to corresponding IthaGenes entries.
IthaMaps content was supported by partnership with the HVP Global Globin 2020 Challenge

Detailed mutation frequencies
Entry ID | Locus | Region | Ethnic Group | Population Type | Sample Size | Study period (from) | Study period (to) | Reference | Comments | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
23214 | β-locus | Belgrade | Mutli-ethnic | Carriers | 73 | 1998 | 2005 | 15870487 | Frequencies are shown for beta-globin gene mutations from both carriers and patients. Study samples were acquired from health clinics in Belgrade and were of Serbian or Montenegrin descent. Three of these were beta-thalassaemia patients. | |
23215 | β-locus | Belgrade | Serbs | Carriers | 130 | 1998 | 2010 | 20854122 | Frequencies are shown for beta-globin gene mutations from both carriers and patients. Study samples were acquired from health clinics in Belgrade and were Serbs, Slavs by origin. Three of these were beta-thalassaemia patients. |
